India will play a three-match ODI series in Zimbabwe from August 18 – here is the full schedule, match list and start timings of ZIM vs IND 2022.
The Men in Blue, who recently played a white-ball series in the Caribbean, will travel to Zimbabwe in the middle of August for an ODI series. The short tour will feature only three ODIs and will be played over the span of five days.
India will be led by Shikhar Dhawan, who also led India in the ODIs in West Indies. Shubman Gill has been given another opportunity after his comeback to the squad last month. The 15-member side also features Deepak Hooda, Sanju Samson, Prasidh Krishna and Kuldeep Yadav.
Deepak Chahar’s return has been a big talking point. Chahar picked up a hamstring injury during the home series against West Indies in February, which also prompted him to miss the 2022 Indian Premier League. Washington Sundar also makes a comeback after recovering from a hand injury, which he suffered during the IPL. It forced him to miss the series against South Africa, England and Ireland. Now fit, he has been playing for Lancashire in the ongoing county summer. Rahul Tripathi, who was selected for India’s tour to Ireland but did not play a game, gets his maiden ODI call-up.
The series will not feature stars Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya and Virat Kohli due to the Asia Cup, which starts on August 27. Jasprit Bumrah has also not been considered due to an injury.
Zimbabwe are yet to announce their squad.
